Noted for leading the design and
management of ‘complex, multifaceted projects’, Michael Lindsey
is the associate principal of HLB
Lighting Design in Denver. He recently
completed the scheme for the United
States Courthouse Los Angeles, by
Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, which
has garnered multiple awards for
electric and daylighting design. The
project’s success is a testament to
his ‘ability to see the big picture,’ says
a colleague, ‘strategically focusing on
significant overarching project themes
while tending to the small details
along the way during hundreds
of minor deliberations.’ Additionally,
he provides firm-wide BIM leadership
and serves on the IES Energy and
Sustainability Committee.
